The Love Trap of the Ruler.
Chapter 36. I Want to Talk About Him.
Xavier scrunched his face as he glanced at his phone from earlier ringing and repeatedly also he did not pick it up. He was not a person who carelessly received a phone call let alone from an unknown number. Especially now where his emotional state is not good due to the behavior of Graciella.
Then the phone reads briefly a sign a message has been entered. Xavier finally picked up the phone and looked at the contents of the message.
“I'm Laura. Can you lift the call? I want to talk about Graciella."
Xavier just looked at the phone. Soon the phone was ringing again. Xavier narrowed his eyes slightly staring at the screen not directly lifting it. He seems to think. But he finally gave up too. His ego was outdone by his curiosity about Graciella's state.
“Halo?” that cold heavy voice sounded as well. Laura immediately developed her smile.
“Halo! Finally, my God, calling you is like calling the president. Very difficult. Why did you lift it so long anyway?” said Laura who immediately shed her sense of regret. I called Xavier. Only now did the man pick him up. Getting a ramble from Laura, Xavier frowned. Very chatty, he thought.
“What's up?” xavier asked again unaffected by what Laura said.
“Oh, yes, um... Graciella is now in my apartment. I have a job today. I can't take care of him. Can you come to look after him?” pinta Laura's. Actually, he has no job at all. But lying for the sake of kindness might be a little forgiven.
“Why call me? I'm not her husband.” Xavier flatly said it.
“Yes, you're not her husband, I know that too. But when should I call Adrean here? he'll definitely make Gracie's situation worse. Only you can I ask for help.”
“I can't. He also refused to be with me. So there's no need to tell me how he is. I do a lot of work.”
“Do not turn off the phone first! ouch! this Gracie! do you know why he rejected you?” asked Laura who did not think Graciella had rejected Xavier.
Xavier frowned, “She said she still loves her husband.” There was a sense of unease in his heart when he said that. Remembering Graciella's face before she left earlier. She just realized, why would Graciella have to seem so sad just to reject her if she still loves her husband?
“He? where she still loves Adrean. She wanted to part with her husband but she couldn't. Adrean has many acquaintances who make Graciella can not do divorce. Whenever Graciella wants to ask for a divorce, the man must have physically abused her. Their marriage certificate is in Adrean's hands so Graciella can't put her divorce suit in court. You know, Graciella used to report Adrean's actions to her, but she was instead laughed at by some cops who turned out to have been bribed by Adrean. That kind of life Graciella lived for three years. It's too bad, isn't it? maybe he wants to stay with Adrean. Just now he said he wanted to leave Adrean's life is up to want a divorce or not, the important thing is he does not want to be with the man anymore.” Laura told me at length about Graciella's life. Xavier only listens to her, not knowing that the woman's life is as miserable as Laura had said.
“Stay, he doesn't want me to protect him," Xavier said. However, Graciella clearly says that protecting her is not Xavier's job. Isn't that a rejection?
“Yes, it's because Graciella thinks she's not the woman you deserve. He felt your family wouldn't accept him. He also thinks he will make your future not good later. That's why he rejects you as much as possible. He was so sad, he just cried. It seems like he already has a taste for you that's why I called you. If you like him, you should keep chasing him. Instead of leaving him, how the hell?” said Laura who was even upset by Xavier's actions. Xavier and Graciella are both stubborn.
Xavier frowned again. What is the problem of this woman, why suddenly she scolded Xavier instead.
“Hah ...” Laura breathed heavily. “If Graciella hadn't gone to that masquerade party with Adrean! His fate will not be this bad.” Laura instead started 'curhat colongan.'
“Yes. A week before her wedding. Graciella accidentally slept with a man. At first he thought it was Adrean, the man went into Graciella's room and she used a mask because there was a costume party. But it wasn't! Uh! that guy! she should have been blamed for making Graciella's life miserable. If it wasn't for her fucking Graciella. Adrean will not torture her born and inner like that,” explained Laura again.
“Mask party? When did that happen?” xavier asked frowned deeply.
“Ehm, 3 years ago. Graciella got married on April 11th, so yeah around April 4th, A[ril,” Laura said.
“Where is the place?”
“Di Hotel Sangri - La. Wh why? do you want to investigate? Can you tell who that guy is? If you can, please just imprison him! If you need the death law! he has already made the life of a fine woman to be ruined in the destruction!” laura said so excited. Xavier is a soldier, he can definitely track him down well.
Xavier was silent for a moment, his eyeballs seemed to twitch as if searching for something in his memory. “Fiesta de Mascaras? what's the name of the party?”
“Once, maybe. I didn't know Graciella at the time. By the way, are you looking for him?” asked the amazed Laura, as soon as Xavier could tell the name of the event.
“Hmm...” Xavier just answered him with his dehemant.
“So? Can you come?” ask Laura. That's core.
“After completing a certain amount of work I will go there," Xavier said steadily.
Laura instantly warped her smile like she was about to be visited by Xavier. “Alright, let me know until I can get out, uh I mean, let me know when I'm out later," Laura bit her lip.
“Alright, thank you.” The call was interrupted.
Laura kept her smile. He believes his steps are right. He then peeked back towards Graciella's room. Seeing the woman calm down in her sleep.
Xavier put down his phone with a questioning face. He rubbed his lips while looking thoughtful. Xavier picked up his phone and called Fredy immediately.
“Fredy! Give me all the data about the ‘Fiesta de mascara’ party that was held three years ago at the Sangri-La hotel, I wonder if there is a name Adrean or Graciella there? which room is he staying in? Who was he with there? list of names that follow it? I want to know everything about the party. Tonight all must have been handed to me.” Xavier asserted giving orders.
“Ready Commander!” answer Fredy. Xavier immediately shut down his phone. He quickly walked out and immediately got into his car and left the base.
